Maybe he could replace all the ground-based transportation systems with a huge fleet of balloons inflated with all that hot air he generates.

After his 2nd Tweet where he's bashing politicians and the country going to h*ell, the reporter wrote, 'Trump is considering running for President". Let's hope that's not true and the perennial poseur will go away- some day!

he in? Wouldn't it be fun to watch Trumpster and Christie go at it? Two mouths, windbags locking horns. That would be great TV! They could sell tickets, hold it in Vegas, classy.

Do the same with the southerners, slower but still fierce in their own ignorance. Where is LBJ?

if it's true that the train approached a curve at twice the speed limit -- something I wouldn't recommend to a heat-seeking missile.

He should come down to DC-NoVA to use Calista Gingrich's stylist or just hire her/him. That GOP Helmet Hair is perfect, never moves, is 'set' for months. And stiff as masonry-
